Following the verdicts on Tuesday, Gerry Wareham, from the Crown Prosecution Service (CPS) Yorkshire and Humberside, said Mr Burling’s death was ‘one of the most shocking cases’ they have ever dealt with.

He added: ‘Words cannot begin to convey the extent of Jordan’s terrible suffering at the hands of the very people he should have been able to trust the most.

‘Those responsible for that suffering have been found guilty of causing his death.’
